Well, it’s that time of year again! Time to “art up” some post cards for the iHanna Post Card Swap!

This year I was at a complete loss as to how I was going to create them. Time was growing short, and I was getting a little nervous. Then it occurred to me that had been wanting to do some experimenting with ink spray, instant backgrounds!

I realize a lot of people have been using these for quite a while, but I’m a chicken when it comes to trying newness, I love my comfort zone! There is a minimum of clean up with these, so I’m sold!

I was kind feeling the neon calling, so a few swipes with a card and layers started happening.

In an attempt to give the riot of color some stability, I added black pigment circles…hmmm…yeah, thats not working for me!

Stenciled daisies, that’s the ticket! In my world, daisies solve a multitude of sins!

Onward…

One of my latest obsessions, ephemera stacking. I made about 20 of these in front of the T.V. one evening. Super handy to have around, especially for Happy Mail emergencies like this one.

I had more than a month to sew this project up, these saved my bacon!

Vintage images, washi tape, large circle punch, ephemera stacking, and ‘Bob’s your uncle!’

Lots of brightness too!

I put these together in one night! I hope my fellow post card swappers like them as much as I do!

I even used my handy dandy envelope maker to make these lovely envelopes. I got mine at Michaels with a 40% off coupon.

So, there you have it. Another Post Card Swap under my belt. Now, I can sit back and watch the post cards arrive! Yay!

I’ll share those as soon as I receive all of them.

Thanks again for the visit,

Have a great day,
